Soliton mode-locking with saturable absorbers
Abstract
We investigate ultrashort pulse generation based on the fundamental soliton generation that is stabilized by a saturable absorber. The case of an absorber with a recovery time much longer than the pulsewidth of the generated soliton is investigated in detail. Based on soliton perturbation theory we derive equations for the soliton variables and the continuum generated in a mode-locked laser. Analytic criteria for the transition from stable to unstable soliton generation are derived. The results demonstrate the possibility of ultrashort pulse generation by a slow saturable absorber only. The theoretical results are compared with experiments. We generate pulses as short as 13 fs using only semiconductor saturable absorbers.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
